Austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger developed quantum theory’s wave equation, which describes quantum systems as waves that ...
Charles Bennett and Gilles Brassard pioneered quantum information theory. Now they’ve been awarded the highest honor in computer science.
A newly derived “q-desic” equation suggests that quantum effects may subtly alter particle trajectories across the universe.
An American physicist and Canadian computer scientist received the A.M. Turing Award on Wednesday for their groundbreaking ...
Scientists worldwide respond to the publication of the three-volume monograph “Quantum Model of the Universe” #Physics ...
For decades, physicists have faced one of science’s greatest puzzles: merging quantum mechanics, which describes tiny particles, with general relativity, which explains the universe’s vast structures.
Quantum theory and general relativity have long described the universe with incompatible languages, one speaking in probabilities and the other in smooth curves of spacetime. A new line of work argues ...
An international team of physicists has uncovered a subtle but important twist in how “memory” works in quantum systems.
Charles H. Bennett helped pioneer the foundations of quantum information science alongside co-laureate Gilles Brassard of Université de Montréal.
You’re late for an important appointment. Just as you are leaving your house, you realise your phone is flat. Imagine you could charge it almost instantly by exploiting the strange rules of quantum ...
Classical physics theories suggest that when two or more electromagnetic waves interfere destructively (i.e., with their electric fields canceling each other out), they cannot interact with matter. In ...
The physics preceptor sat down with Fifteen Minutes to discuss New York City, interdisciplinarity, and the origins of math.
